Alot of things done wrong by the Ravens, but that lack of challenge flag was a game changer. A rare Harbough fail.

Lol@ touchback!

Was the game as bad as espn.com game cast made it seem? This looks like an ass whoopin by the donco's.


Edit:I already miss welker and think it was insanely stupid to let him go over 6mil a year:

It was a great game up until the failure to throw the challenge flag, and the Broncos got a TD a play or two later. Ravens never recovered and Peyton and Co. just ran with it.

Well... not the best start to the season! Just hope the Ravens pick it up over the next few games.

And I benched Manning for Vick in my fantasy team, I had a great night...

I'm loving my Seahawks. They look like a team headed to the Superbowl. Now if only they learn lessons from the last time they were there.

Oh, and they have hot cheerleaders, too.



Still, they should hire that Aussie hurdler who does the boing boing thing. That'd be pretty damned awesome.

Bah. Sea chickens are only good for .... hmmm not much.
Besides the Eagles have better Videos

I don't think they qualify as cheerleaders, they're wearing too many clothes.

Ugh, lost one fantasy matchup already
Guy started Peyton Manning and Denariyus Thomas, so Unless Kaepernick can really rip apart GB there's no way I'm getting past that 75 point lead

I'm devastated I benched Peyton Manning, Vick better break that 7TD record or else that's a first week loss...

Part of me hopes so, and would love the Broncos on the other side just to see the party we'd have on Superbowl night. I'm a Broncos fan, Aura follows the Seahawks.

There is no universe where benching Peyton Manning in favor of Michael Vick is ever acceptable. Ever.

D. Thomas got me almost 32points in my fantasy league, unfortunately my opponent has Peyton.

GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO PACK!!!!

Guys, you need to look beyond Manning at the rest of the guy's team. Peyton may be the only stud he has, and the rest will net him next to no points. If you built a strong team that hits just above average, you have the better chance of winning.

Haha whoops ok we need 1 more person and I'll set the league to draft Wednesday. If anyone has a friend that wants to join we need an even number.

Where's Kronk?

I've been busy as hell, but I just joined the league this morning. Sorry, but I've ben AWOL lately.

So we have time for a quick draft, maybe?

Or just schluff this week and start next?

Can't draft this week because of Thursdays game. I can set it to draft first thing Tuesday if their are Monday night games(haven't checked the sched.). That way well be good to go for week 2 and just do 2-14 then 15/16 are playoffs.

2nd edit: FFL is set to draft so be ready to set line ups before Thursday for week 2.

Also who the heck benches Peyton manning with those receivers? Regardless of 7 TD's he was going to go for 300+ and 3+ so why bench him?

Also GO PATRIOTS get the off season fully behind us with a win already!

BREAKING NEWS: Jacksonville(FL)--The Jaguars vs Chiefs game was just delayed 15 min after Blaine Gabbert reportedly found an unknown white powdery substance on the field. Play was suspended and the police were called.

After a complete analysis, FBI forensic experts determined that the white substance unknown to Jaguar players was the GOAL LINE. Jacksonville had never seen such a thing before, but the game was resumed after the police decided it was harmless. The score remains 21-2, Chiefs.

Bears win 24-21!!
Bengals lost it by that personal foul penalty and having to burn 2 TOs on the Bears last TD drive (Both for 12 men on the field)

So gutted for the Bills, they came so close!
Damn I hate the Pats.

That's what happens when your a team that knows how to win randomtoaster. Go pats!

What is Tampa bay's problem... They are the jets south with freeman getting stripped of captaincy and then that dude giving them field goal range with 9 seconds left on a completely worthless personal foul lol.

DAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA BEARZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ!!!

missed the game, hope its on nfl replay this week.

Well, it was an ugly win...but it was still a win.

The Seahawks really need to stop the stupid penalties, and find the freaking ground game that showed what a Beast Lynch can be.

Against a better team, I believe that they would have lost this week.

If they don't get their crap together, I don't see them doing well at all vs. SF next week

BROWNS WHOOOooo....

Oh well... we would have won if those two TDs weren't called back. Granted I wasn't watching the game, I was playing FF14

Meh... They considered "Toronto's unofficial NFL team", meaning they share the same bad luck & general crappiness of all Toronto teams.
Still, it was a good effort, especially after they were so badly dominated most of the first half.

The Pats on the other hand need to stop shooting themselves in the foot every chance they get. Against a better team, they'd have been absolutely demolished.

Yah the patriots definately have some work to do. But anyone who thought the transition for the rookies would be seamless was fooling themselves.

RAMS defeated the CARDINALS in a squeaker...

Either I'm over-hyping the RAMS, or the CARDINALS can be really scary this year with their new quarterback.

So is it possible that three teams from the NFC West could make the playoffs?

If they split their division games, then they are all 3-3.

If (theoretically) they all win all their other games...that puts them all at13-3.

Division champ
Wild card

Now that would he something rare I bet!

The AFC North is 0-4 now. The Bengals pretty much gift wrapped that win for the Bears. Fuggin embarrassing.

This would be wild. But the cards and rams have both proven they'll be good early and let the wheels come off. I have more faith in the rams and fishe than the cardinals. But with Bruce Ariens as their coach who knows what the cardinals are capable of as they certainly have talent. But remember they started 4-0 last year and finished like 6-10 so there is that.

Edit:and not a great start a pickem. I should have just played the favorites lol.
